Poetry Pantry #303

(Luk says: "These next 5 are the artistic shots I am currently developing. They are double exposure shots that I have designed to contrast and envelope places and sights in Macau.")

Ascension - This photo is a double exposure of a staircase in the Sao Lorenzo district of Macau and St. Paul's Ruins. The regligious motifs around Macau are rich and plentiful and felt the 2 locations complemented each other well, As if one is stepping into the heavens while the tourist represent our self absorbed ways.

City Lights - This double exposure is the combination of lanterns in Senado Square and the Monkey King display, which appears to be floating away on a cloud. This combines local tradition with it's gaudy and wonderful display.

Nature Engulfs - In a city like Macau where population density is very high and homes are stacked one on the other, Getting any nature is nearly a miracle to observe. This large tree proved to be the best subject to engulf the fog ridden city.

Nature Gives - Another Urban garden double exposure. This time a palm tree is filling the content of a historical structure.

This combines 2 common public services in Macau - The bus and the multitude of small library's found through out Macau. While great services do exhist here, sometimes it can be lonely packed inside these locations.

Greetings, Friends! I hope you enjoy the second series of photos by Luk Lei. I really enjoyed the artistry in the photos. If you did not see Sherry's interview of Luk, be sure to look back at last Monday's article in which he was featured!

This Monday Sherry has a wonderful chat with one of the most loyal participants here at Poets United. None other than Jae Rose (And Alice too!). It is a chat you don't want to miss.

Wednesday Susan's prompt for Midweek Motif is "Picnic." Yes, it is beginning to be that time of year, isn't it?

Well, with no further delay, let's share poetry. Link your one poem below. Stop in to comments and say hello; and read some poetry! It is important to visit other poets, as that is an integral part of our community. See you all on the trail.

Sanaa and Bekkie, for some unknown reason, I have left several comments at each of your sites that is not posting. Bekkie, only a testing comment went through but not the others. Sigh. I blame Windows 10, new on my system and not user friendly. I did try hard.

Glad to be back!So sorry for not reading you all, as I have been ill and now feeling better. I look forward to reading and posting again. Thank you for all my followers that have written to me. Especially those that have written to me without having me to write and visit their posts.ZQ
